    For a lot of reasons I rue the day the internet took hold. Privacy… no longer in existence, identify theft is endemic. Everything at work takes twice as long because all data has to be stored in three different ways in five different locations and still printed out and filed manually (ok i exaggerate a tad, but its not very far off the truth). People have stopped caring because computers answer phone calls, or you have to go online to fill out forms, and… I hate automated answering services… I kept getting put through to the wrong person at Guy’s because of their system! And don’t start me on trains and tickets. Voice recognition is deaf dumb and blind. Don’t start me on broadband technical teams either!!!! phones that link you through to email, facebook and god knows what else. Now ok, i am sounding like a ludite, but whatever was wrong with a phone that you use to just text or speak to someone? Why make a phone into a mini computer?

    Maybe in a brave new world, people will just never speak to each other again, they will email or text, and a true friendship will not involve getting a bottle of red wine and a takeaway and sitting talking and laughing with someone you have known and known well for years and years. Progress?

    rubes is lovely, she always has been as far as i’m concerned and I doubt anything will change now as I’ve known her for an age. I love her irreverent take on life. One thing you can say for rubes, she knows how to rattle a cage or too.

    I think this is a step too far. Children have brilliant imaginations and can PRETEND they are breastfeeding if they want to mimic mum. We already have pooing and weeing babies, and ones that you can bottle feed. Why do we really need one that mimics breast feeding too?

    I like a certain slant… it shows flair.

    We should guard what’s left of our manners jealously. We might need them again.
